SPAIN. This seems an awfully odd way to express "monetary amount"... and the "o de otra naturaleza" part is also throwing me off...

Explanation:
Better to state the country of origin - the late and great US-Mexican ProZ translator Henry Hinds: 'there are over 25 Spanish-speaking countries and many regional variation between them'. I have come across 'magnitudes gravadas por el tributo' on Cuba and it meant in that context: taxable turnover limits.


Example sentence(s):
  • Practice note 6: full consideration in money or money's worth.

  -> Thanks Chris. Great minds and all that, whilst small minds still haven't picked up on the macro-economic extrapolation to 'money supply'.

neutral  philgoddard: I agree with "value in money", but not "money's worth" (which really appears only in "get your money's worth"), nor with "turnover" (this is about all taxes), nor your distinction between Spain and Cuba (this is an into English question).

  -> A strange 'money's worth' comment coming from a UK-qualified accountant - besides which that part had not been in the question. Just as odd is the cold water poured over Cuba that relaxed foreign investment rules in 1990 as per my notarised ES->EN transl.

Monetary value is value in currency that a person, business, or the market places on a resource, product, or service. In fact, most goods and services in our modern economy are priced based on monetary value.18

Asker: Thanks, but I don't fancy "value" for this one. I ended up using "amount/monetary amount"...
